Mihály Attila: “Congratulations to the home team on their victory. It was obvious for us that they are meant to win so we played bravely, which work for a while, but then mistakes came. I think, this was such a match, where every one of my players deserved to get the opportunity to play, because our motto is that every match is a celebration particularly against a CL champion. There were positive things in the way we played, we are going to keep on working on them.”
Gerháth Fanni: It was great to come back to the arena, it was like coming home. This has been the first match since my injury, so I’m very happy to play against ETO first. Congratulations to the team and good luck in the CL.
Ambros Martín: Congratulations to Budaörs, it’s clear that our today’s opponent’s victory against Siófok was not accidental, they played perfectly. It was also obvious that if we hadn’t been focused they could have caused us a lot of trouble. We had expected the first half to be different, but then we changed to plan B. We had to stand up from a losing position and we had to play differently from what we had been preparing for, but fortunately, in the second half, we could perform better.
Fodor Csenge: We are though a very serious and grueling series of pressure and our team is also incomplete so we were not in an easy situation. In the beginning, we weren’t accurate and the defense was also imperfect, but fortunately we could play our game in the second half”
